A thermophilic soil isolate Bacillus sp. Y-127 was selected for the production of thermostable amylase. The strain was used for the enzyme production and the thermostable amylase was characterized. The optimum cultural conditions for the enzyme production were 6$0^{\circ}C$ at pH 7.0 for 32 hours using a mineral medium containing 2% soluble starch and 0.2% yeast extract. The extra-cellular enzyme was purified about 123-folds with about 6% recovery. The purified enzyme was stable at pH between 4.0 and 7.0, and temperature up to 6$0^{\circ}C$.

An acid-stable ${\alpha}-amylase$ produced by Aspergillus niger K-25 strain was purified by fractional precipitation with ammonium sulfate, ethacridine and acetone. The final preparation was homogeneous in cellulose acetate electrophoresis. The enzyme retained 91 % of its oringinal activity at pH 3.0, 8.7% at pH 2.4. The optimum pH of the enzyme was around pH 4. The purified-enzyme with optimum temperature of $40^{\circ}C$ was more heat-stable than the commercial product. The enzyme retained 80% of its original activity when heated to $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes while the commercial amylase lost its acitivity completely within 30 minutes at $50^{\circ}C$.

A new method of fructooligosaccharides production was investigated by an amyloglucosidase using sucrose as a substrate. Optimum reaction conditions were as follows: sucrose concentration, 700g/$\ell$; pH 5.5; temperature, $55^{\circ}C$; enzyme dosage, 48 units per gram sucrose. At the optimized reaction conditions, 41.5% of fructooligosaccharides were produced after 25 hours. A hydrolyzing activity was stronger than transfructosylting activity at low sucrose concentrations, resulting in low production rate of fructooligosaccharides. The optimum pH and temperature in both transfructosylating(pH 5.5, $60^{\circ}C$) and hydrolyzing activity(pH$4.75^{\circ}C$)were significantly different from each other. The amyloglucosidase also utilized fructooligosaccharides as a substrate and glucose seemed to be an inhibitor.

To recover phosphorus from incinerated sewage sludge ash(ISSA), ISSA were extracted with sulfuric acid solution, and the optimal phosphorus recovery conditions were experimented by comparing the recovered phosphorus contents and heavy metals by raising pH. Also the phosphorus recovery efficiency was compared when acid extract was reused or classified by particle size of ISSA. The optimal conditions for recovering phosphorus from ISSA were 1N sulfuric acid solution with an L/S ratio of 10, and an extraction time of 30 minutes. Considering the addition of alkali substances and the content of heavy metals in the recovered sediment, it is concluded to recover phosphorus under pH 5. Reuse of the ISSA extract increased the recovery rate of phosphorus by 14~21% depending on the reuse rate (100 and 50%), but it also increased zinc contents to 33 and 21%, and copper contents to 35 and 20%, respectively. The experiment of ISSA divided into four sections by particle size showed that there was no distinct advantage of phosphorous recovery by classification of certain particle size of ISSA. The removal of heavy metals from extracts through EDTA and cation exchange resin showed no definite effect.

Two strains of Lactobacillus(L.) casfi and one strain of L. Pentosus, which were isolated from pickles, were used to investigate in studing their characteristics of ${\beta}-galactosidase$. The preferable carbon sources and pH of the MRS media for enzyme production from L. casei No.10 was found to be 1.0% lactose and pH 7.5, from L. Pentosus No.63 was 1.0% galactose and pH 7.5, and from L. casei No.36 was 1.0% lactose and pH 6.5, respectively. The maximum enzyme production from each strain was found after 48 hours culture at $30^{\circ}C$ in a medium with preferable carbon source. The optimum reaction temperature with substrate for ${\beta}-galactosidase$ activity was found at $60^{\circ}C$ for all three strains . The stability of enzyme from L. casei No.36 was found to be at $45^{\circ}C$, from L. Pentosus No.63 was found at $55^{\circ}C$. This stability from L. casei No.36 was found at $40^{\circ}C$, but it was reduced to 60% at $55^{\circ}C$. These stabilities of enzymes remained about 90% at $40^{\circ}C$ for all three strains. The optimal pH for enzyme activities was found to be pH 6.5 for all three strains. Enzyme activity remained over 90% for L. casei No.10 at $pH\;5.0{\sim}6.0$, for L. casei No.36 at $pH\;5.0{\sim}8.0$, and for L. pentosus No.63 at $pH\;6.0{\sim}7.0$.

Ethanol production by calcium alginate-immobilized baker's yeast (Saccharor/tyces cereviszae) was studied in the batch fermentation using glucose medium as a feed. Immobilied cells were stable between $30^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$ whereas free cells were stable between $30^{\circ}C$ and $37^{\circ}C$ The beads were showed constant ethanol productivity during 720 hours (30 days) over. Fermentation characteristics of immobilized baker's yeast were examined changing the initial glucose concentration of broth in fermentation. Initial glucose concentrations employed were 50, 100, 150 and 200 g/l, respectively. In 15% gucose medium, maximum specific growth rate, maximum ethanol yield and ethanol concentration were observed as 0.092 $h^{-1}$, 0.45, 67.5 g/l, respectively.
